I had an idea about a year ago. I wanted to follow a specific artist that I didn't know. Use their work to write a story. Very SAT kind of writing exercise. I figured I would do this everyday I could and create a story using the pictures I saw posted that day or the previous. I am doing this now. It can be viewed here or on [link]. The link is just below. Either way, I hope you all enjoy it for what it is worth. It helps me gear up to write my book and once that in completed, my wish is to see it in print and later on Oprah. That woman can really sell books.

Anyway, enjoy and please let me know what you think. It would help a great deal.

What I found was a mediocre sentence that sent my world spinning and destroyed my already fragile little mindset. Bradbury said that in order to be a compelling writer, they need to understand themselves. I agree, but in practice, this can be a very painful action. Personally, it is driving me nuts. I just posted on my blog about how I currently feel. I think my writing may be improving, but improving from what is beyond me.

I'm loading up the post for you all the read.

I'm very confused, and not entirely sure where to go from here, but hopefully I'll find my way back soon.

I've been a bit slack on my writing, and as such, have lost some of my ability. I am trying harder, and will soon have worked on the kinks and flexed the proper muscles.

In the meantime, I have begun a blog that will hopefully get updated fairly often, and I will be posting them here on occasion, but always check there as well.

Plus, I have found that the exercise of writing a story to a picture is helpful and amusing, so expect to see that showing up fairly often. There is currently one written, but more are coming. If you have a picture you love in particular here at Deviant Art, shoot it to me and I'll see what I come up with. Might be fun to see if you can stump me.

Until then...
